Chapter 1246 The Butcher
This incident happened so suddenly that Wu Sheng and I didn’t react at all.
“Old Mao!” Wu Sheng and I shouted, and then we flashed and quickly came to the mouth of the tank.
“I’m fine.” Mao Buhui’s voice came from the tank. Wu Sheng and I climbed up to the mouth of the tank, but when we saw the scene inside the tank clearly, we all shuddered and almost slipped and fell down like Mao Buhui.
“How can there be so many corpses?” I frowned, with suspicion in my eyes.
I saw that the vat was filled with densely packed corpses. The corpses were piled together and stuck together due to decay. Some of the corpses could not even be distinguished as male or female. The corpses were soaked in a yellow liquid that gave off a rancid smell. I didn’t know if it was a special potion or corpse water.
In short, the scene in the vat was extremely disgusting.
Fortunately, Mao Buhui did not fall to the bottom of the vat. Instead, like a big spider, he used all four limbs to cling to the wall of the vat. When he saw us looking down inside, he said, "Hurry up and pull me up. I can't hold on
any longer." Mr. Wu and I quickly reached out our hands and pulled Mao Buhui up. Mao Buhui sat on the edge of the vat, took a deep breath and said, "Damn, that was a close call. I almost fell into the pile of corpses. Even if these corpses are not poisonous and can't kill me, they can at least disgust me to death."
"What are these corpses used for? Are they for burial? But if they were, why were they thrown into the vat?" I whispered, looking at the scene inside the vat.
"It should be used for sacrifice." Mr. Wu turned his head and looked in other directions, and whispered: "This side room should be the tomb for sacrifice. Look, there should be something placed there, but now it is gone."
"Put something there?" Mao Buhui and I looked in the direction Mr. Wu pointed, and then we saw that there was indeed a mark in the corner of the tomb. It seems that there should have been something placed there, and it must have been there for a long time, otherwise, it would be impossible to leave such a deep mark on the ground. It's
just strange, things used for sacrifices should not be moved away by anyone, so why did it disappear now?
Not only me, but even Mao Buhui was puzzled: "Could it be that a tomb robber got there first and stole the things used for sacrifice? But that's impossible. This is different from an ordinary ancient tomb. Although there are no fatal mechanisms here, the zombies in the ancient tomb are not vegetarians. Once a tomb robber comes in, the zombies responsible for guarding the tomb will wake up. Not to mention the tomb robber, even a cultivator with Taoism will die on the spot."
I nodded when I heard it. Mao Buhui was right. Ancient tombs like this from the Qin Dynasty would have a tomb keeper.
In the ancient tomb behind our village, besides the Xu family, there is also a living corpse named Shadow Dao Ren who is the tomb keeper. They are in a sleeping state most of the time, but they will wake up when there is any movement in the ancient tomb.
Just as we were riding on the edge of the vat and looking around, suddenly, we heard a "gulp gulp" sound. The three of us changed our expressions, and then we all lowered our heads and looked into the vat.
"What's going on?" Mao Buhui frowned and said in astonishment, "Could it be... there is something in the vat?"
Then we saw that the originally dead yellow-brown liquid suddenly had a series of bubbles, and even the corpses that were stuck together began to tremble.
It felt as if the yellow-brown liquid was boiling.
However, there was no one to light the fire in this vat, so how could the liquid inside be boiled?
"There is someone in this vat... Get out of here!"
My expression suddenly changed, and I shouted to the two people beside me.
However, almost as soon as I finished speaking, I heard a "whoosh" sound, and a human head suddenly popped out of the yellow-brown liquid.
After seeing this human head, my heart skipped a beat, and I thought to myself, damn, this person's willpower is really harder than steel. If it were someone else who was hiding, I guess they would vomit after seeing such a disgusting scene.
"Fuck, you're so disgusting to me! You can hide in such a disgusting place, you're my big brother!" Mao Buhui let out a dry gasp, turned sideways, and fell directly from the big vat, hitting the ground with a "bang".
As for Wu Sheng, he kicked his feet hard on the wall of the vat, and the whole person flew up and landed steadily on the ground.
As for me, after seeing the face of this head clearly, my pupils shrank, because I actually knew this person!
No, I can't say I knew him, I should say I've seen him before!
"Zhang Qianyu, I've been waiting for you for a long time. You killed my two apprentices. Today, I will make you be buried with them!" The man said viciously, and then I saw a flash of silver light, and he was holding a pig-killing knife in his hand, and he was slashing towards me quickly. The
power of this knife was extremely great. The knife had not arrived, but the sharp blade had already hit my face, and at the moment this knife was chopped, there was a cry.
The cry was like a demonic sound. After it sounded at this moment, my heart trembled immediately, and the whole person seemed to be possessed by evil. I didn't even know how to hide, and even had a kind of world-weary idea of not wanting to live.
"Qianyu!" Wu Sheng's voice rang in my ears, and then a big hand grabbed my shoulder and took me back quickly.
The next second, there was a loud bang, and a silver light flashed and clashed fiercely with the butcher knife.
Instantly, flames flew everywhere, Mao Buhui was shocked and trembled all over, and the whole person flew back. As for the man, his face was ferocious, and he kicked hard on the edge of the jar with his feet, and rushed towards me again.
"You are... the master of the evil sky, the butcher!" I said loudly with a look of astonishment.
The moment this head emerged from the pile of corpses in the jar, I felt that it looked familiar. It was not until he took out the butcher knife and rushed towards me that I instantly remembered this person.
Back in the ancient tomb, I had seen the deepest fear in the heart of the evil sky.
This man was almost the nightmare of Evil Sky during his childhood.
Not only did he not regard Evil Sky as a human being, but he kept him in a pigsty, and he even raped Evil Sky's senior sister in front of him.
This became the nightmare that Evil Sky would never get rid of. But
what I never expected was that this man would actually ambush in this ancient tomb, and even hide in such a disgusting environment, for the purpose of revenge for Evil Sky, who he had always treated as a human being!
